That's all for now. Will dump more later.

>>31367130
Is that a t-shirt or a weirdly wrinkled torso?

Watched Black Hawk Down for the first time in a while today. What a great film, I had a 90's operator boner the whole time, what are those PC's called? I forgot how sad this movie was, or I was just too young back then to realize.

Ranger Body Armor

>>31367589
isn't that later desert camo? I thought all they had in '93 was the style that's on their helmet covers

>>31367870

3-color desert was developed shortly after Gulf War 1 to replace 6-color chocolate chip which was shown to be sub-par. It would have been brand new in 93.

>80s A1 with steel pots > 80s A2 with nazi looking pasgt helm

It's a good thing I was a baby during the early 90's. If this is what our soldiers looked like today, I'd probably be gay for them.

Requesting the guy with the nice pants firing his gun from standing on a berm

you know the one

>60's m-16 steel pot > 80's PASGT m-16a2 > 80's m-16a1

At what point did it become tacticool and gear queering?

>>31368633

80s early 90s mustache seemed to have fallen out of favor.

Used to be a lot of regulars had em now not so much.

>>31368655
Gear queering has always been a thing. It's just the tastes that have changed. What was gear queer in 1980 was different than 2016.

Not only that but also the best overall period in history.

It's not a ship, it's an LCU - Landing Craft Utility

No.

Yes.

No.

>>31374255
Maybe.

>>31367854
I think I remember reading that the SAS attached maglights to their mp5's to use as simple and dirty laser sights before they were a thing. They'd center the light on their target and shoot.

>tldr: It's a flashlight, not a scope.

>>31374303

I don't know.

>>31368704
holy fuck nostalgia. I had this poster on my bedroom wall as a kid.

>>31374333
Except it is clearly a scope in that pic
